INTRODUCTION. 

Although  I  am  a  Draftsman  and  can  both 
draw  and  paint  the  plants  that  I  collect,  yet  the 
expense  of  time  in  doing  so,  with  the  cost  of  en- 
graving and  colouring  the  drawings,  are  so 
great  that  I  have  but  seldom  availed  myself  of 
my  talent  and  opportunities  to  publish  costly 
figures  of  new  or  rare  plants.  I  have  preferred 
and  I  do  now  again  prefer  giving  the  specimen^ 
themselves  for  authentic  figures.  This  can  be 
done  as  cheap  or  cheaper  than  by  multiplied 
figures :  many  splendid  works  of  Iconographi- 
cal  Botany  are  often  published  at  much  higher 
rates.  Copied  figures  are  not  always  accurate, 
nor  expressing  many  minute  characters  of  sur- 
face &c,  and  some  botanists  are  not  satisfied  un- 
til they  can  examine  the  original  specimens  of 
discoverers  or  improvers ;  or  when  wishing  to 
detract  from  the  merit  of  vast  botanical  resear- 
ches, they  deny  the  accuracy  of  whatever  they 
cannot  verify. 

This  Autikon  of  2500  figures  by  specimens 
will  be  the  best  answer  to  any  vain  attempt  to 
depreciate  my  discoveries  and  researches — 
although  I  have  5000  fine  plants  to  illustrate  in 
this  manner,  I  have  selected  for  this  work,  the 
rarest  or  new,  else  the  finest  or  unfigured;  such 
as  will  illustrate  my  botanical  works  and  im- 
provements, particularly  those  that  shall  be 
omitted  in  the  North  American  Flora,  lately 
undertaken  jointly  by  Torrey,Gray  and  Nuttal, 
who  have  overlooked  or  left  unnoticed  many  of 
our  New  Genera  and  Species,  because  either 
not  met  by  them,  or  blended  with  others  when 
seen  in  fields  or  herbals.  Whence  the  need  of 
giving  sometimes  the  figures  of  akin  species  for 
contrast,

\  INTRODICTION. 

Whenever  the  plants  have  ah*eady  been 
named  and  described  by  myself  or  others,  It  will 
be  so  stated,  with  a  reference  to  the  works 
where  published.  If  yet  new  or  undescribed, 
their  synoptical  description  will  be  given ;  also 
their  locality  and  some  occasional  remarks. 

The  principal  works  of  mine,  where  such 
New  Genera  and  Species  have  chiefly  been 
described  already,  are  the  following.

the  illustrations  of  twice  as  many  described

improvements.

New  Genera,  of  which  31  are  now  first  described

Addition — I  omitted  im  st%te  at  Article  of  Eu- 
phorbia in  7th  Century,  that  1  had  added  3  other 
Genera  to  the  long  account  of  the  G.  mingled  in 
Euphorbia ;  they  are  in  my  Sylva  Telluriana  of 
1838,  articles  708  to  715,  G.  Endoi$ila,  Peccana 
and  Ditritra,  all  of  Antilles,  this  last  G.  with  3 
sp.  is  akin  to  Aplarina  and  Xamesuke. 

Correction  to  935,  for  previous  Sm,  dentata 
Jaq.  read  previous  Smilax  liastata  of  Jaquin. 

Add  763.  if  the  generic  name  of  Parmcwiicra 
has  been  employed  already  for  some  other  Genus, 
of  which  I  have  a  faint  idea,  then  this  cluster  of 
Solanums,that  include  the  Patato,  must  be  cal- 
led Artorhiza  meaning  Bread-root,  Raf.

New  Gen.  whereof  17  hitherto  undescribed,  and 
the  illustrations  thereof  192,newsp.  whereof  122 
are  described  for  the  first  time.
